The thought of a condition potentially getting worse as time passes and not knowing what to do can be a bit frightening, I know. Perhaps if you can find ways to force yourself to sleep that could help because lack of sleep can actually have detrimental effects on pretty much anyone. (Putting myself out there, when I can't sleep I watch asmr on youtube.)
Also, I too have had a family member diagnosed with schizophrenia but it doesn't "run in my family". So maybe this could be the case with you and your family as well. Hope you can get the help you need. Rooting for you.
